Place large, heavy items at the back of the unit and work forward with lighter, fragile items.

Keep frequently accessed items near the front and allow for walkways, if needed.

Consider adding shelving in your unit to optimize space and keep your items organized. We can advise you on shelving options to fit your needs.

Pack electronics in their original boxes when possible or wrap them in bubble wrap. Store upright and remove batteries from items to prevent leaks.

Ensure these appliances are defrosted, cleaned, and dried before storing. Wedge doors ajar to keep them fresh.

Wrap these items in packing material and store them standing on their edges, not lying flat.

Use packing paper to wrap fragile items individually. Place layers of packing inside cartons and label boxes containing breakables. Avoid storing heavy items on top of fragile boxes.

Clean and dry furniture before packing. Use protective covers for sofas and chairs. Wooden furniture should be polished and wrapped with corrugated cardboard.

Use acid-free tissue for wrapping silverware and china, packing them in marked boxes.
